PRACTICE AREAS
EXECUTIVE SEARCH
Finding the ideal candidate to fill a vacancy on your executive board, in a senior team, or for a specialist position requires the services of a consultancy with an intimate inside knowledge of the digital infrastructure sector - cloud, datacenters, hyperscale, edge, IoT, Al, and the digital economy that it supports.

When seeking senior-level candidates for any assignment, Portman has the unique ability to leverage its partners' and associates' experience and personal contacts built up over forty years of designing, building, and operating digital infrastructure facilities. Combined with their many years of executive search expertise, Portman can ensure its clients and candidates, it handles all assignments with the discretion, and confidentiality executive assignments demand.
“Great companies don't hire skilled people and motivate them, they hire already motivated people and inspire them.”

NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS
Portman has an extensive network of senior executives who can bring a wealth of experience to assist other organisations during periods of growth or change.
​
An NED member of a company's board of directors is not part of the executive team but is involved in policy-making and planning. At times, shareholders may require NEDs to represent their interests at the board level. In addition, for some clients, bringing in an NED can help take the business to new levels.
INTERIM EXECUTIVES
For the short to medium term, interim executives offer experienced and highly qualified senior leaders for fixed-term, full-time assignments, typically between six months and a year. On short notice, Portman supports clients with interim executives to provide cover during mergers and acquisitions, business transformations or periods requiring crisis management.
